Hard-Hitting LB Turned DL with Proven Tackling Pedigree from Miami & Marshall
Juwon Young, a physical force who racked up 57 tackles (2nd on 2015 Miami Hurricanes) with 3.0 TFLs and 1 INT in 11 games, transferred to Marshall where he started 8 of 9 games as a redshirt junior in 2017 as a middle linebacker before shifting to DL; his high school dominance (118 tackles as Albany HS senior) and 247Sports scouting grades (8/10 instincts, reactive quickness) highlight elite pursuit and hitting power, making him a tone-setter ideal for teams needing intense, instinctive run-stoppers—watch for NFL upside if he stayed healthy post-2017.
